Look's like Ana's lips are moving again

Blogger Comments: I listened to Ana's video and all I can say is cry me a hand full. Sheriff Franklin has done nothing for this county except to rob the sheriff's office blind. If Franklin's lips are moving she is lying. Franklin the Top Cop for Morgan County claims that her house was broken into. Give us a break Ana. If your house was broken into people would be in jail. You blame everyone for your shortfalls except for yourself. You are right about one thing though, your family did not sign up for what you have put them through. You invested in the Title Marts aka Performance Auto Sales. You brought your family, friends, and employees into the corrupt dealership with Greg Steenson. You lied multiple times about where you got the money to invest. The media just told the truth about your many lies. You and your cronies have dogged the media and the whistleblowers because you got caught. You stole the inmate food funds knowing you had no right to them. You claim the commission has done nothing to help your office. Sheriff, you bought high dollar vehicles for you and your goons leaving the deputies to drive the worst of the worst vehicles. You needed those vehicles to impress the rodeo crowd. You could have bought multiple vehicles for the deputies at the cost of those vehicles. You did not request pay raises for your employees. You did not submit documentation for grants. You did not ensure adequate training for your employees. As for dash cams you spent approximately $18,000.00 on dash cams made in China that weren't worth the box they came in. What you did do is spend hundreds of dollars jet-setting around the county using funds that could have been used for the betterment of the sheriff's office. I haven't even mentioned the horse trailers, specialty clothing, gear, saddles, horse blankets, T-shirts, and other junk paid for to promote your real job. The rodeo/posse scene.The whistleblower may be crazy, delusional, and all the other things you have called her. Maybe it was a lunatic the county needed after all.The whistleblower has no pity for you. You brought this on yourself, your family, friends, and used your employees such as Bones, Blake, Justin Powell, and others to do your dirty bidding. When you go to prison for the things that you have done I hope you have a long time to think about those people you hurt to include but not limited to the citizens of this county, the employees of the sheriff's office, the inmates, the families of the inmates, the offices of the county, and the cities that you also represented. You, Sheriff Franklin, did this to yourself.Sheriff Ana Franklin the first female sheriff was in a position of power that could have been used to move women within our county further. Franklin was the most powerful law enforcement officer in the county who took no initiative to motivate women and minorities within the workforce.

I could go on and on but the citizens of our county know the truth. Ana, you chose the route you took. Don't blame the commission or the whistleblower for your downfall. The buck stops with you.

Alabama's only woman sheriff isn't seeking re-election

Ana Franklin, the only woman in Alabama currently serving as a county's top cop, is not running for re-election.

Franklin was first elected Morgan County Sheriff in 2010, taking office the following January. She plans to serve the remainder of her second term, which ends in January 2019.

"Today is a difficult day for me and comes only after endless hours of painful, deliberate thought and constant prayer over this decision," Franklin said in a video message posted to her Facebook page today. I have decided that I will not be seeking a third term as your sheriff.

"I am truly honored and blessed to have been given this opportunity to serve the people of my county," Franklin continued. "I love Morgan County and the people I work with. I love the office of sheriff and what that office means to the people."

In the video, Franklin reflected on her accomplishments and time in office. She spoke about creating a Special Victims Unit, putting school resource officers on the county's campuses, increasing training and providing better equipment to the deputies. She noted that there have been no fatal police shootings or homicides left unsolved.

Franklin is a Republican. The primary election is June 5. A runoff will be held July 17, if necessary. Among those qualified to run as Republicans is Hartselle Police Chief Ron Puckett. Hartselle is Morgan County's second largest city with about 14,000 residents.

The comments by two individuals in the Cavnar camp, about one of the other candidates, have truly caused me to second guess the type of man Cavnar is. I am well aware that he has not attacked anyone personally on here but one leo who he has promised a captain slot on here constantly does.

Individual candidates can’t control what others say or do. They can only tell them not to ask them not too. I don’t judge a candidate based on what others say I’m not voting for them I judge them on them and what they say and do, and others supporting other candidates do the very same thing. It’s about who is seeking the office not the drama others do.

Agreed. But, here we have someone that 7understands the whistleblower has caused a stir and he is using it to his advantage. He does not like his biggest opponent Puckett. I actually am looking at 3 people, but I am noticing a trend here. Someone, cough, cough...keeps mentioning things about someone...cough cough...that would lead to the demise of a campaign...cough...cav...cough...nar. Quit being a child in a grown ads mans body. Ugh.

It’s quite obvious that the WB folks are against one candidate in particular because that’s the only candidate that criticized on here. I personally have neither read anything from any candidate running nor read anything from any candidate running to indicate that one candidate is sling mud as it is put against another nor that they don’t like each other. Show me then I’ll believe it the only slinging in this sheriffs campaign going on to be read about is on this so called blog. Just go vote for who you like running folks down running makes this county look like redneck country and it isn’t.

A child in a grown mans body. What a childish remark How do you know that he doesn’t like an opponent have you asked? All of the campaigns so far everyone is running clean ones so I don’t think your opinion matters much. Hers your shovel. Mud shovel that is

How funny, Cavnar tried to control the content on this blog early on, Glenda got pissed, and now she's working against him. This is gonna be fun to watch!Hey Randy, as they say, if you lie down with snakes, you're gonna get bit.

I have a question, I have a scanner app and have noticed how un professional Hartselle Police Dept. sounds versus other Police Departments. They sound like kids with those little walkie talkie things you buy them for Christmas. They talk all the time, when other Departments seem to just keep their radio traffic short. Is this the same Department that the Puckett guy is Chief of?

Sad that you could fall for such a story. Ron Puckett doesnt need Ray Long. You're being used or you're part of the Cavnar team spreading false rumors. Call Puckett and ask for yourself, he's man enough to talk to you.

Y’all folks speaking who are outside looking in on police stuff do realize that Puckett and Cavnar are friends from a long time back right? I know both of them they have never said anything bad about the other. You folks are just trying to stir up something that just ain’t there. Get a grip.

Randy has never said one negative word, about Mr. Puckett. All I've heard him say or do is give respect to Mr. Puckett as they gave been friends for years. I think Mr. Cavnar issue is the situation of Ray making promises to Ron to get him to run, the situation of Ray Long sticking his nose in the Sheriff race.
